View Patent ↗A liquid-cooled permanent chill mold for the continuous casting of metals, including a permanent chill mold plate ( 2 ) made of copper or a copper alloy and an adapter plate ( 3 ), on which the permanent chill mold plates ( 2 ) are fastened via fastening bolts ( 12 ). The permanent chill mold plates ( 3 ) are coupled to the adapter plates ( 3 ) via sheet metal holders ( 19 ) situated in their top regions and base regions ( 20, 21 ), in addition to via the fastening bolts ( 12 ).
1. A liquid-cooled permanent chill mold for the continuous casting of metals, comprising:
a permanent chill mold plate made of copper or a copper alloy; and
an adapter plate, on which the permanent chill mold plate is fastened via fastening bolts, wherein the permanent chill mold plate is coupled to the adapter plate via sheet metal holders situated in their top regions and their base regions, in addition to being coupled via the fastening bolts, the sheet metal holders each having a projection that engages a U-shaped recess formed in the adapter plate.
2. The permanent chill mold according to claim 1 , wherein the permanent chill mold plate is a component of slab molds or thin slab molds, or a component of a broad face plate of a beam blank mold.
3. The permanent chill mold according to claim 1 , wherein the sheet metal holders engage in top end and base end recesses of the adapter plate by projections.
4. The permanent chill mold according to claim 2 , wherein the sheet metal holders engage in top end and base end recesses of the adapter plate by the projections.
5. The permanent chill mold according to claim 1 , wherein the sheet metal holders are coupled to the permanent chill mold plate via slot and feather constructions.
6. The permanent chill mold according to claim 2 , wherein the sheet metal holders are coupled to the permanent chill mold plate via slot and feather constructions.
7. The permanent chill mold according to claim 3 , wherein the sheet metal holders are coupled to the permanent chill mold plate via slot and feather constructions.
8. The permanent chill mold according to claim 3 , wherein the permanent chill mold plate has longitudinal grooves in the top region and in the base region, in which the sheet metal holders engage by feathers at the edges.
9. The permanent chill mold according to claim 8 , wherein the longitudinal grooves are bordered, on the one side, by edge beads of the permanent chill mold plate, and, on the other side, by crosspieces developed on their back side.
10. The permanent chill mold according to claim 9 , wherein the crosspieces, in the region of the lateral end faces of the permanent chill mold plate, run out extend obliquely in a direction towards a back side of the chill mold.
11. The permanent chill mold according to claim 9 , wherein the feathers on the sheet metal holders are formed based on inner recesses of the sheet metal holders, which engage over crosspieces on the permanent chill mold plate and over slats, on the adapter plate, that are adjacent to the crosspieces.
12. The permanent chill mold according to claim 10 , wherein the feathers on the sheet metal holders are formed based on inner recesses of the sheet metal holders, which engage over crosspieces on the permanent chill mold plate and over slats, on the adapter plate, that are adjacent to the crosspieces.
13. The permanent chill mold according to claim 1 , wherein the sheet metal holders provided in the base region are provided with bevels at the end faces of feathers.
14. The permanent chill mold according to claim 1 , wherein a casting side of the permanent chill mold plate is provided with a bevel in the base region.
15. A liquid-cooled permanent chill mold for the continuous casting of metals, comprising:
a permanent chill mold plate made of copper or a copper alloy; and
an adapter plate, on which the permanent chill mold plate is fastened via fastening bolts, wherein the permanent chill mold plate is coupled to the adapter plate via sheet metal holders situated in their top regions and their base regions, in addition to being coupled via the fastening bolts,
wherein the permanent chill mold plate has a middle crosspiece, legs adjacent to middle crosspiece and a flange adjacent to legs at the edge, rounded transitions being located between the legs and the flanges; the permanent chill mold plate having sliding slats, on its back side in the vicinity of the transitions, that extend in the casting direction, while, analogous to the sliding slats of the permanent chill mold plate, at a cooling side of the adapter plate in the vicinity of grooves between the flanges at the edge and the oblique legs, holding slats are situated which also extend in the casting direction.
16. The permanent chill mold according to claim 15 , wherein the sliding slats are components of the permanent chill mold plate, all in one piece.
17. The permanent chill mold according to claim 15 , wherein the holding slats are detachably secured in position in the grooves of the cooling side of the adapter plate.
18. The permanent chill mold according to claim 16 , wherein the holding slats are detachably secured in position in the grooves of the cooling side of the adapter plate.
